[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It makes me crazy how everyone always says a cleaning service will magically solve this problem. Or that I need to “relax my standards”.

We are a family of 4 and every day entails dishes/laundry/straightening/sweeping/garbage. You can’t outsource all of that unless you can afford a daily housekeeper.

This isn’t a matter of me having exacting standards and wanting a perfect house. It’s basic health and safety. We have to take out garbage, pick up toys off the floor, clean up spills, or it creates hazards for our children’s well being and safety.

I have to remind/cajole/demand/tell/yell at DH to do anything at all. And then praise/honor/appreciate him for every little thing. I’m so exhausted. I have my own job.[/quote]

I often think the same thing about the 2x monthly cleaning service advice! I totally agree that houses need daily sweeping, tidying, and vacuuming (esp. if you have little kids and or pets) and bathrooms need to be cleaned at least once a week.

People must be living in filth around here if they think 2x a month makes a house clean.[/quote]
